Summary
Our genetic knowledge of Parkinson’s disease (PD) is moving forward at an impressive speed. In less then 10 years family-based linkage analysis and positional cloning have led to the identification of several genes for familial forms of PD, which has been of critical importance to the scientific advance of PD research as the causal genes have offered new tools to model and understand pathways leading to neurodegeneration in PD.
